Page 50 of Her Cold-Hearted Alpha: Part 2

"So, you didn’t punish him for what happened?" She asked.

"I don’t know if Selena focused a little too much on carving those large tits of yours and in turn forgot to add the correct amount of brain cells in the fucking process-"

"Hey!" She said, her eyes flashing purple and her cheeks burning red. I smirked.

"Just stating facts." I remarked mockingly.

She sure got worked up easily.

"I'm not dumb! I'm just asking a question! And stop looking at my boobies!" She crossed her arms over her breasts and I raised an eyebrow. Didn’t she know that just made them look even more fucking tempting? I forced my eyes away and frowned deeply, trying to focus on the conversation at hand.

"I sent him to Bills land… That place is dangerous and overridden with fucking rogues. He won’t make it out alive… not alone." I said quietly.

Her breath hitched as her heart thumped wildly in her chest.

"You sent him to his death? You didn’t even let Aunty say goodbye…" She whispered.

"After what he did, he doesn't really deserve that." I said coldly.

"I know… He did wrong… but not even a goodbye? Wasn’t that too harsh?"

"I don’t really have a heart." I said, now looking at her.

Her words did fucking affect me… I never questioned my rules, my decisions or how I worked. But she had given birth to a shadow of doubt about them now…

"You do… I just… Her suddenly not even getting that closure… I know he deserves to be punished but…." She whispered. Her heart was hammering loudly now and I could see the sadness in her eyes.

"He broke everything The Night Walkers Pack stands for. I know I'm not the most compassionate Alpha and I won’t pretend to be. I'm not like Elijah or Raf. I'm a king and I'm not trying to be liked. Fuck with my rules and I'm done. Carmen only got a second chance because of you… or I was ready to end her life that day." I said, keeping my gaze on the road.

"When a wolf joins my pack… they take a blood oath to not only honour the pack and treat it like family, but to obey and serve me, to respect my laws and rules. They know the consequences. I have an example to set. I saw the shit Zidane Malone did to his pack… the way they were treated, and how no one could step in, it was disgusting. That sick fucker let anything go; abuse, murder, rape. There was no law to protect pack members from that. That Alpha, no matter how fucking sick he was, decided his packs fate. Your parents went up against him with a few packs… but they broke a code to do it. A code that no longer exists under my rule. An unwritten rule not to interfere in other packs. That fucker Fred got away with a lot of shit thanks to Indigo. I've seen her distance herself from her family under false fucking pretences and it kind of makes fucking sense now. I know it may seem like a fucking heartless thing to do. Yeah, it probably was... But I'm the king. My word is fucking law. He brought this shit upon himself, so he can deal with it now."

She was silent and I didn’t know what else to say, I wouldn’t change my rule. She took a deep breath and nodded.

"I understand… I just… A chance for her to say goodbye would have been cool…" She whispered.

"We’re pretty different then because I don’t see why it was important." I said, shrugging.

I've never had to explain myself to anyone, but here I was, explaining why the fuck I did something.

"I just… If we were in that position, and my mate cheated on me, then was sent away where I knew he may never return…" She whispered.

"First of all, I wouldn’t fucking cheat on you. I haven't slept with anyone since you." I said coldly.

Fuck, that was not meant to imply any shit. The image of her and Rayhan filled my mind, and I felt my aura wrap around me. Her heart was thudding and I wondered if the same thought had entered her mind… Well, it was in the past, no matter how much it fucking hurt.

Her heart was beating like a drum as she looked into my eyes, her eyes filled with emotions I understood. We hadn't marked each other, so I couldn't sense hers… but I sure as fuck knew what was in her eyes; guilt and regret. I knew what was coming before she even spoke.

Her voice was barely audible as she whispered the words; "There’s something I need to tell you."

83. Confessing

KIARA

He looked at me sharply. My heart was thudding painfully. The pain of my wolf, her regret, my guilt… I had to do this, sooner or later I would have to tell him and I’d rather do it before he somehow found out from someone else. The fact he hadn't slept with anyone other than me really hit a nerve. No matter how he reacted… He had pushed me away.

"What is it?" He asked, turning back to the road.

I looked at his face, his sharp chiselled jaw, his small beard, his tattoos… his necklaces…
